[SOLVED] New phone does not connect - Samsung Galaxy S4 mini

Post by Quagmire »

Hi,

Have been using MSDroid on my MS1 v3 for some time now, with my old Motorola Razr XT890. Worked perfectly :yeah!:

Then I dropped my phone and it went all iphone on me and the screen smashed. :?

Cue my replacement phone - a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini. I have paired this with the bluetooth adapter in the car, but MSDroid just sits there saying "connecting" and never actually getting anywhere.

I have confirmed that the bluetooth adaptor is not at fault as my Motorola still connects and displays realtime data etc just fine.

Any ideas? The Motorola is on Android 4.1.2 and the Samsung is on 4.2.2 if that has anything to do with it.

Many thanks

Jamie


*EDIT - Pasted the *.ini file from my firmware download zip file into the msDroid/ini folder and all working now.

Plug your phone in as a media device.

Then browse to the folder on your computer where you have extracted the firmware zip file to. Now copy the *.ini file.

Now browse to your phone>internal storage>msDroid>ini and paste the file in there.
